The Express Yourself Weekly Meme is hosted by Jackie @ Bouquet of Books and Dani @ Entertaining Interests.
The question for this week is: What is ONE thing Steampunk-ish you find fascinating from books, TV, movies and/or the internet (i.e. fashion, mechanics, idea, etc.)?
I love Steampunk for the general aesthetic of it, but more specifically, I go crazy over anything with visible moving parts. I've always been fascinated with clockwork anyway, and as a kid I loved looking at the inside of pocket watches and clocks to see how the gears worked together to create such precise movement. I'm not at all technologically savvy, mind you. I just love watching the way things work. I can't necessarily make them work when they're broken. Unfortunately.
Anyway, anything with gears immediately has my attention, and Steampunk is full of that. I love clockwork creatures of any type. When I see a clockwork creature, I want to do this.
